UPS Truck Hijacked, Driver killed in Shootout

[Returntosender]

Every state is different and anything can be brought up in a court of law. In the end I will not be surprised if the cornor report says the perps bullets are the ones who killed him

UPS trucks are aluminum and fiberglass panels that won’t stop 9mm. Police bullets killed the driver

I think you're thinking of "stand your ground"

Castle law pertains to ones home or legal occupied place.

Not entirely true, if someone pulls a gun on you in a parking lot and shoot him thats self defense.

Yes it is but its not castle law.

ok

The perps were firing out

when the truck stop if they shot the driver?
Then bullet entry points will show powder burns from close range shot. And entry points at drivers back? Any entry points in front or side of driver is police rounds

They will be making a HUGE donation.

Don't be so sure of that, they have been all over the local news defending their actions.

The bill/ law is actually more geared to ones personal home/ dwelling

I believe there are two different laws 1. Castle Doctrine & 2. Stand your ground.

I think you're thinking of "stand your ground"

Castle law pertains to ones home or legal occupied place.

Most of the recent cases weren't either one. They were just self defense.

Keep in mind that the initial robbery and hijacking happened in Miracle Mile in the nice part of Miami, not some boarded up barrio ghetto on the west side.

Recently went down there for a friend's wedding and it is very nice and very safe. They probably put this new driver there because it's relatively forgiving (for Miami) with lots of tight businesses and upscale homes.

Be safe out there, this sort of thing can happen anywhere, anytime, anyplace.

Who knows for sure. But if you truly believe cops are animals then I’m sure you’ll forego their services in the future should you find yourself in danger.

I can see that the cops made some bad decisions here but I guarantee not many people in this forum, or any where else, would have done better in those circumstances. I mean we have drivers that can’t even handle the “pressure” of delivering and making pickups but want to second guess the decisions of cops that were in a REAL stressful situation? LOL. Riiiiiight

Maybe their problem is the same a as hours. Piss poor training?

you have to learn how to read

Another 1,000 truck drivers lost their jobs in November, and it's a chilling sign for the economy

Interesting read

Why were they still out and about? A lengthy rap sheet including armed robbery? For crying out loud. If you have them dead to rights, pull them out into town square and execute them. Why do we put up with this ?

I wonder how long until THEIR families start crying about how the cops used excessive force? You know it’s coming.

I'm surprised they haven't played the race card yet.

What is their defense?

 

[watdaflock?]

A bystander and the driver were killed? Cops just shooting at everything? I hope their families sue.

Good luck with that. Our courts are as corrupt as those who wear badges and "enforce" laws.
